The First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

 1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

 2 I have fed you with ^amilk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.

 3 For ye are yet ^acarnal: for whereas there is among you ^benvying, and ^cstrife, and ^ddivisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

 4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

 5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ^aministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

 6 I have ^aplanted, Apollos watered; but God ^bgave the ^cincrease.

 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own ^areward according to his own labour.

 9 For we are ^alabourers together with God: ye are God’s ^bhusbandry, ye are God’s building.

 10 According to the ^agrace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

 11 For other ^afoundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

 12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

 13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the ^afire shall ^btry every man’s work of what sort it is.

 14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

 15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself ^ashall be saved; yet so as by fire.

 16 Know ye not that ye are the ^atemple of God, and that the ^bSpirit of God dwelleth ^cin you?

 17 If any man ^adefile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is ^bholy, which temple ye are.

 18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you ^aseemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a ^bfool, that he may be ^cwise.

 19 For the ^awisdom of this ^bworld is ^cfoolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own ^dcraftiness.

 20 And again, The Lord ^aknoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are ^bvain.

 21 Therefore let no man ^aglory in men. For all things are yours;

 22 Whether ^aPaul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; ^ball are yours;

 23 And ye are ^aChrist’s; and Christ is God’s.
